4 Alas, sinful nation, People weighed down with iniquity, b Lit SeedOffspring of evildoers, Sons who act corruptly! They have abandoned the LORD, They have despised the Holy One of Israel, They have turned awayc Lit backwardfrom Him. | |
5 Where will you be stricken again, As you continue in your rebellion? The whole head is sick And the whole heart is faint. | |
6 From the sole of the foot even to the head There is nothing sound in it, Only bruises, welts and raw wounds, Not pressed out or bandaged, Nor softened with oil. | |
